From what little I have seen so far on the national news programs, it seems that our response to the hurricane victims has been large and continues to pour in. The major critizism seems to be around the slow evacuation and aid to those gathered at the Superdome and the Convention Center.
Just how late was the response? How many lives did the FEMA delay cause? It seems to me that the people evacuated are in better shape than those still in their houses.
Just how fast can we evacuate a whole city anyway? I guess I have more research to do. From what I can tell so far, it seems that more lives would have been saved by better planning at the local and state level than anything that the feds could have done.
